ABSTRACT

There are four forces of nature: gravity, electromagnetic, strong nuclear and weak nuclear. Electricity is actually created by combining two of the four forces of nature: magnetism and electricity. Different materials and even elements of nature are used to create the motion required to turn conductors through this magnetic field and include: water, wind, nuclear and fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas. Certain types of fuels are known as fossil fuels because they were formed from the fossilized remains of prehistoric plants and animals that took millions of years to form. There is a price to be paid for using fossil fuels, since they contribute to the production of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and these types of gases alongside pollution are the main cause of global warming and as well as other environmental factors. Biomass uses living, or recently living organisms or materials to produce energy.
